[2002-11-15-CMLL] Apolo Dantes & Black Tiger & Dr Wagner Jr vs Shocker & Mascara Magica & Vampiro Canadiense

[ohtani's jacket]

This was the final of the #1 Contenders tournament for the CMLL Trios title, so they got more time than in the other tournament matches. Very good match. Best Shocker performance in a while. He gave a complete three-fall performance with strong offense in the first fall, excellent selling in the second fall, and a fiery comeback in the third. We got to see the two heavy hitters, Wagner and Shocker, square off, but I also liked the way Apolo got in the mix. You can see what an excellent worker Apolo was through his interactions with Vampiro. Just a really good hand. There was some predictable interference from Rey Bucanero, but it was actually pretty cool. Ultimo & Rey beat the shit put of Vampiro on the entrance ramp and left him for dead while the rudos moved on to next week's final. This would make my Best of the Year comp.
